I have a JW Kingdom Hall, not far from me and they, as they do, call round and as I’m polite I engage with then and they leave the two standard publications. My favourite item was always “was it designed or was it luck”. Or something like that, as they failed to grasp what evolutionary theory was. They have their view on the story of Christ that may not chime with your view, but it’s their view.
But my ire with your comment is the inflection that my Christianity is better that your Christianity. We have the same god but you’re not doing it right. You’re not real.
In how many other areas in society, can that, and is that accusation often made?
That’s not “real” socialism, that’s not “real” communism, that’s not real Islam…. examples in point.
Those arguments can lead to extremism.
That very notion is the reason I’m non-religious.
This will be my first and only post in this thread.
